What are your thoughts?

Some one is selling these machines on Mr.Pinball.

ST has a lot of toys.
Has anyone played these games? Sega seems to get a bit of "not so good" feedback.

Tough to say really, neither are stellar games.  I've played allot more SST then ID.  ID has allot of ramps and some pretty decent flow I can't really go into it any further as that is all I remember about it.

SST can be kinda of repetitive, targets = bugs, kill bugs to advance through worlds rinse repeat.  The theme is pretty well done if you like the movie.

I don't mind playing either game when I see them available just not sure one game is better then the other.

SST by a wide margin-
It has some good humour, It adjusts the targets you have to shoot for each level making it progressively more difficult, Has a great light show, Very difficult to make it to the end. One of SEGAs best games.

I've never played I'd but I used to own a SST and really miss it.  Like adam said, its a little repetitive but the ramp shots are fun to hit, and it's got great lighting

Likely although I haven't played Godzilla enough to make this statement.

It's an oddball and very GREEN shaker game which I find somewhat intriguing. Hell it's on my wanted list now dammit. Likely by the end of the day I will pull an ALJO and change my mind.

I've played a few games on the one Dave Astill has ... I found it (Godzilla) quite fun ... I also enjoyed SST but have never had a chance to play an ID

Good Looking Game!

I need to take a look into the various games Sega made.

Godzilla I really like, a very simple rule set but well implemented with some very good risk/reward payouts.

Dave Astill says it's his favourite game. This coming from one of the guys longest in the hobby and he's owned a ton of different machines too.
